cool, any tips on how to replace these? how much are they? should i got to acuraautomotiveparts.com for the cheapest ones?

 

search "cam seal/plug" under archived threads there's a couple threads there that explain how to replace it. you can buy an oem one or aftermarket one like the STR. not too expensive, not sure off top of my head how much though.

edit... here's a good writeup. click on "DIY"
